Chapter 599 Master's Treasure Gift
Jingtian was pleasantly surprised, but after stabilizing his state, he did not continue practicing because he remembered that his master and his mistress did not have much time left.
"Thank you, Master and Madam."
When Jingtian opened his eyes, he saw that the old man and the old woman were still there. He was obviously relieved and then knelt down again to express his gratitude to the two elders.
He really gained a lot this time.
“Get up. Your performance is worse than I expected. I thought you could reach the foundation-building stage in one go.” The old master said calmly.
"ah?"
Jingtian was instantly embarrassed. He was originally quite proud of being promoted to the next level, but the result was so far from what his master had expected.
"Xiaotian, don't listen to your master's nonsense. He is teasing you. It is impossible for someone to advance directly to the foundation-building stage. Go open the box on the table. There is something we left for you inside. There is an item that can allow you to break through directly to the foundation-building stage."
The old lady gave the old man a white look, then spoke to Jingtian lovingly.
Jingtian was instantly awakened from his loss, his eyes brightened up completely.
Receiving the inheritance was already a surprise enough, and I almost forgot about the two wooden boxes on the stone table.
Jingtian stood up and walked to the stone table, opening a wooden box casually.
There was only a small white jade bottle in the box, only the size of a thumb, which looked very beautiful.
"Master, what is this?"
Jingtian felt that there were still restrictions on the small jade bottle, so he didn't dare to act rashly and asked the old man directly.
"It's the Foundation Establishment Pill, which your master's wife specially left for you." The old man said lightly.
"Foundation-building pill? A real pill?" Jingtian's eyes lit up.
Jingtian's breathing became a little rapid.
Having inherited the knowledge of alchemy from the old master's wife, he naturally understood the foundation-building elixir.
This foundation-building pill is a very special kind of pill. Unlike many other pills that have so many grades from grade one to grade nine, it only has three grades: high, medium and low.
The Foundation Establishment Pill has very high requirements for the alchemist, and it is basically impossible to refine it without reaching the level of a great alchemist.
Moreover, the materials for the Foundation Building Pill are harder to find than those for ordinary high-level pills.
Finally, the effect of the Foundation Establishment Pill is very simple, which is to advance from the Qi Refining Stage to the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Many Qi Refining Stage practitioners will never be able to successfully build a foundation in their entire lives. Such practitioners will try every possible means, even spending all their money to purchase a foundation-building pill.
"I am only at the eighth level of Qi Refining now. Can I take it?" Jingtian asked with some confusion after being excited.
"You can take it after you reach level seven. Of course, you won't normally take it at this time because the success rate is higher during the peak period." said the old lady.
"Then I'd better wait a little longer and not waste the treasure." Jingtian said.
"You can't leave here until you reach the foundation-building stage."
The old master's words stunned Jingtian, and he looked at the old lady.
"Your master is right. This is how it was set up from the beginning. Until the disciple reaches the foundation building stage, he cannot leave our cave." The old lady's words made Jingtian completely give up.
"Then... is there a treasure in this box that can help you increase your realm?"
Jingtian had a bitter look on his face, and then threw Hope into another box.
"Kid, you're overthinking. Open it and see for yourself."
The old lady looked at Jingtian and obviously wanted to laugh.
Jingtian quickly opened another box.
There are two items in this box, one is a jade stone that looks like chopsticks, and the other is a large jade needle that is engraved with intricate array patterns.
The other is a palm-sized three-legged incense burner.
There were also restrictions on both items, and no aura was emitted from them.
" What kind of treasure is this?" Jingtian asked. He was a little disappointed because it was not a pill.
"These are the utensils we used before, a pill furnace and a formation gun." said the old lady.
"Alchemy furnace? Formation spear?"
Jingtian's eyes lit up again. He now knew what these two things were. Especially since they were used by his master and his mistress, they were real spiritual treasures!
He understood the characteristics of the alchemy furnace and the array spear. These two treasures were extremely difficult to make and could change size. The alchemy furnace was especially difficult to refine.
An alchemist's furnace is very important. A good furnace can definitely make the refining of pills easier and improve their quality.
As for the formation spear, it is a necessary item for drawing the formation patterns and engraving the formation plates. A good formation spear is equivalent to an alchemist's alchemy furnace.
Moreover, truly advanced formation spears can also be used as weapons. Some formation masters even use formation spears as flying swords during battle.
"Actually, these are three items. There is also a top-grade treasure sealed in the alchemy furnace. Whether you can absorb and refine it depends on your perseverance and luck." said the old lady.
Jingtian was immediately puzzled again. Just as he was about to ask, his master suddenly said, "We only have about one stick of incense left."
Jingtian's expression suddenly changed. He knew that his master was not joking this time.
It could be seen with the naked eye that the statues of the two elders, which were originally radiant with light, had now become flickering.
"Master, what on earth is in the alchemy furnace?" Jingtian asked quickly.
"It's the Nether Flame, an existence that alchemists and refiners both look forward to and fear." The master said calmly.
"Nether Flame?" Jingtian had naturally never heard of it.
Although they accepted the inheritance from the two elders, it was limited to the experience and practice of practicing techniques and skills, and was not the inheritance of their lifelong memories.
"Master's Wife, I will take advantage of this last bit of time to explain to you the issue of fire. It will be of great help to you in the future."
The old lady smiled slightly, and then continued, "If you want to become an alchemist, the first thing you must do is to cultivate alchemy fire after reaching the intermediate level of formation master. So, if you want to become an alchemist, you must have fire attribute in your cultivation attribute."
“Although the Pill Fire is extremely powerful when it grows to its extreme, it is very difficult to cultivate. Therefore, many Alchemists have reached this level but are unable to refine high-level pills because of the low quality of their Pill Fire.”
"In addition to Dan Fire, there are some special kinds of fire, that is the strange fire!"
The master's wife began by laying the groundwork and introducing the alchemy fire, and then brought the topic to the strange fire; "Strange fire is also divided into levels, and there is a ranking of the top ten strange fires. If an alchemist can subdue and refine a strange fire, then he will never have to worry about the level of the alchemy fire, because the strange fire will improve with the level of the alchemist..."
The old lady took two minutes to explain to Jingtian in detail the existence of fire, which made Jingtian fascinated and unable to stop listening.
And in the alchemy furnace before him was the Nether Flame Strange Fire, ranked seventh among the Ten Strange Fires.
Don't look down on the seventh one. Although the attack power of this Nether Flame Strange Fire is inferior to other strange fires, it has a characteristic that other strange fires do not have.
That is, the Nether Flame Fire can devour other fires to strengthen itself.
If two other different fires meet, one of them will definitely be destroyed and they will absolutely not be able to merge.
However, the Nether Flame Strange Fire can devour and fuse any kind of Strange Fire, even the number one ranked Strange Fire.
Of course , this kind of devouring definitely requires a lot of opportunity and luck to achieve.
